My guide Patrick was amazing!! We walked all over the city and saw SO many beautiful, historic, and even funny, sites. His knowledge and love for Brussels is immense and it was such a pleasure of spend the 4 hours with him learning all along the way. I loved his "surprises" along the way taking me to places id of never known of. I had made a basic list of what I wanted to see before the tour and Patrick ensured I not only saw everything on the list but other gems. Just for example my love of stained glass had Patrick walk us into several churches with amazing windows. He was so kind and even helped me pick out beers for gifts and take me to the post office to buy stamps for my postcards. I cannot recommend the 1 on 1 tour with Patrick enough, his tour was the highlight of my time in Brussels!

I did a day tour of Brussels with my two teenage sons. Patrick was a fantastic guide, whose knowledge of the history of the city and all it's hidden gems made for a really interesting tour. He tailored the itinerary to cater to the interests (and attention spans) of my sons, which made the experience easy and enjoyable.

FAQs

Your questions, answered

Are experiences the same as tours?

No. Our experiences are unscripted and designed around you. Instead of following a rigid itinerary, your host will plan a personalized journey that feels natural, immersive, and unique.

What if I don’t know what I want to explore?

That’s completely fine! Select an experience theme or a flexible discovery experience, and after booking, answer a few questions so your host can design the perfect experience for you.

Will I be able to speak to my host beforehand?

Yes. After we match you with your host, we’ll introduce you so you can chat about the plan and make any tweaks before the day.

How do you match me with a host?

We ask a few questions. After you book, you’ll fill out a short questionnaire about your interests and travel style. We’ll then match you with the best local host to design your experience.

Can I request specific places or types of stops?

Yes! After booking, you will receive a questionnaire where you can highlight must-visit spots and anything else you’d like to include, and your host will craft your experience around them.

Will I know my itinerary in advance?

Yes, you will have the opportunity to chat with your host directly and agree on a plan for the day. However, there’s always room for spontaneity and local surprises!

Can I mix different themes in one experience?

Yes! You can blend food, culture, history, neighborhoods, or even a bit of nightlife if time allows. Just share your interests in the questionnaire, and your host will build the day around them.

Can my host meet me at my accommodation?

Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.

Can I cancel if my plans change?

Yes. You can cancel for free up to 24 hours before your experience date—no questions asked.
